Artistic Description:
In auction, a magnificent and evocative work depicting a seascape with strong emotional and dramatic impact. The painting stands out for its extremely tactile and vibrant rendering. The artist has mastered the impasto technique, with thick and robust brushstrokes that give three-dimensionality and dynamism to the motion of the waves and the rough texture of the rocks in the foreground.

The color palette is deep and captivating: it plays on intense shades of ultramarine blue, emerald green, and turquoise, skillfully contrasted by the warm, earthy tones of the cliff. At the center of the composition emerges a vivid point of light (likely a sunbeam piercing a stormy sky or a suggestive moonlit reflection) that illuminates the sea foam and immediately captures the viewer's gaze.

Conditions:
Painting: The painting is in good conservation condition. Colors are vivid, the painted surface is stable; visible defects are noted in the photos.

Frame: The piece is enhanced by a sturdy classic solid wood frame, characterized by a dark finish and step-moldings. The frame harmonizes perfectly with the piece's atmosphere and shows some light and normal signs of aging and wear (small superficial scratches, clearly visible in the photos), which confirm its authentic vintage charm. Please note that the frame should be regarded as a courtesy.

Notes on shipping and customs
The item ships from Geneva, Switzerland. For this reason, delivery times to European Union countries may be slightly longer than usual due to standard customs procedures.

In case of return of the package for an incorrect address, unclaimed package, or unpaid duties, the buyer will have to pay a second shipment and cover the return costs.

I also remind you that, since Switzerland lies outside the EU customs area, import taxes, local VAT, and customs duties are entirely the buyer's responsibility and will be collected by your country's authorities upon delivery. I recommend informing yourself in advance to avoid surprises. Alternatively to shipping, if you have the possibility, in-person pickup in Geneva is always the option I prefer and strongly recommend, as it will allow you to eliminate transport costs and ensure maximum security for the work. If shipping is chosen, I will do my best to package it to protect the painting during transit.
